Breathe
Dear Self,
Breathe.
Relax.
Take it easy.
Everything will be just fine.
Days like these will come to pass.
I know it's one of those weeks when every day seems like a 24-hour work day. You push yourself to the limits and you end up getting pushed to the wall instead, left with not a lot of choices. You do what seems right, but nothing seems to work out as well as they should and you end up with a marathon of discouraging results.
You go home and expect life to suddenly change. It always does. But there are days when no amount of TV shows or baseball game or internet browsing can distract you. Your little boy gets you occupied for a little while and takes you to your Lala land--he never fails to do so, but only until he kisses you goodnight and retires for the day. Then you're back to where you were and realizes that you failed to leave the anxiety at work and all the emotions that came along with it.
But days like these have an end. Mind you, next week or maybe even tomorrow will be a whole new story, one that is a complete opposite. And you will be delighted once again. This is life. It is never perfect for anyone. And complaining will not make it any better.
So take it easy.
Hang in there. You'll be fine.
And breathe.

Salamat, Chi! Today was worse, but I can't complain. This will pass. I just need a short break and I'll get it next week. :-)
HUGS, Liz! I love how you ended this entry with so much positivity and hope. You will be fine. :)
Dear Liz,
i think, all mothers are survivors,and i can see, you are.. and whatever anxieties you are going through, it may be nerve-wracking and scary but, i know its nothing u wont be able to beat..compartmentalizing one's thoughts and closing the shutters on those that do not help and opening up thoughts and spaces for those that relieve these worries are coping mechanisms mothers inherently possess , or if they do not already, maybe acquire in the process of motherhood..you will get through this, ikaw pa.
